Steps:
- Rinse the stomach thoroughly and soak overnight in cold salted water.
- Rinse the liver, heart, and tongue. In a large pot of boiling, salted water, cook these parts over medium heat for 2 hours. Remove and mince. Remove any gristle or skin and discard.
- In a large bowl, combine the minced liver, heart, tongue, suet, onions, and toasted oats. Season with salt, pepper, and dried herbs. Moisten with some of the cooking water so the mixture binds. Remove the stomach from the cold salted water and fill 2/3 with the mixture. Sew or tie the stomach closed. Use a turning fork to pierce the stomach several times. This will prevent the haggis from bursting.
- In a large pot of boiling water, gently place the filled stomach, being careful not to splash. Cook over high heat for 3 hours.
- Serve with mashed potatoes, if you serve it at all.
JOLEAN'S BAKED SPAM LOAF
This was a recipe of my Mom's that was a favorite to all us kids! I recently found her hand-written recipe and just had to post this (especially for Chef Bill Hilbrich who has a cookbook devoted to Spam...) When I look back on those years in the 70's when my siblings and I looked forward to this dish so much, I now realize that my Mom was just trying to "stretch her grocery budget," but how happy she must have been that we really LOVED this recipe! Funny, huh?

Tips:
- Ensure the sheep's head is thoroughly cleaned and all the wool and skin is removed before cooking.
- Soak the sheep's head in cold water for at least 2 hours, or overnight, to remove any remaining blood or impurities.
- When boiling the sheep's head, add a generous amount of salt to the water to help draw out any impurities and enhance the flavor.
- Once the sheep's head is cooked, allow it to cool slightly before removing the meat from the bones. Be careful not to overcook the meat, as it can become tough.
- When making the potted hough, use a sharp knife to finely chop the meat and suet. This will help to create a smooth and even texture.
- Season the potted hough generously with salt, pepper, and other spices to taste. You can also add herbs such as parsley or thyme for extra flavor.
- Press the potted hough firmly into a mold or terrine dish and allow it to set in the refrigerator for at least 24 hours before serving.
